1
00:00:10,261 --> 00:00:13,389
Saludos Amigos
2
00:00:13,597 --> 00:00:16,892
A fond greeting to you
3
00:00:17,101 --> 00:00:20,396
A warm handshake or two
4
00:00:20,563 --> 00:00:23,399
Good friends always do
5
00:00:23,524 --> 00:00:26,777
Saludos Amigos
6
00:00:26,902 --> 00:00:30,364
A new day's waiting to start
7
00:00:30,489 --> 00:00:33,534
You must meet it
Wake up and greet it
8
00:00:33,617 --> 00:00:36,829
With a gay song
In your heart
9
00:01:11,113 --> 00:01:12,782
Here's an unusual expedition,
10
00:01:13,407 --> 00:01:17,453
artists, musicians and writers setting out
for a trip through Latin America...
11
00:01:18,079 --> 00:01:21,916
to find new personalities, music
and dances for their cartoon films.
12
00:01:22,625 --> 00:01:26,295
So, "Adios, Hollywood,"
and "Saludos, amigos."
13
00:01:28,506 --> 00:01:31,634
Saludos Amigos
14
00:01:31,926 --> 00:01:35,429
A new day's waiting to start
15
00:01:35,554 --> 00:01:38,140
You must meet it
Wake up and greet it
16
00:01:38,307 --> 00:01:41,185
Three days later,
they glided in to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,
17
00:01:41,977 --> 00:01:44,355
then down to the Argentine,
Buenos Aires...
18
00:01:51,237 --> 00:01:52,947
and out across the Pampas.
19
00:01:57,993 --> 00:01:59,620
At Cordoba, the party divided.
20
00:02:03,999 --> 00:02:05,835
Some flew over the Andes
into Chile.
21
00:02:06,502 --> 00:02:08,337
The others went north
to the Inca country.
22
00:02:08,546 --> 00:02:10,297
Bolivia, Peru
and Lake Titicaca.
23
00:02:12,383 --> 00:02:13,926
Turning away
from the modern cities
24
00:02:14,093 --> 00:02:16,679
to find the descendants
of ancient Inca civilization.
25
00:02:20,808 --> 00:02:24,311
Eight thousand square miles of water
over two miles above sea level.
26
00:02:25,312 --> 00:02:26,772
Lake Titicaca has been prominent
27
00:02:26,856 --> 00:02:29,191
in Inca history and folklore
for generations.
28
00:02:35,656 --> 00:02:37,116
Wood is scarce at this altitude,
29
00:02:37,491 --> 00:02:40,161
so the fishermen's boats
are woven of balsa reeds.
30
00:02:46,876 --> 00:02:49,962
There's always plenty of color
and excitement here on market day.
31
00:02:54,842 --> 00:02:56,510
These folks come from miles around,
32
00:02:56,677 --> 00:02:59,680
to trade their goods
and swap some of the local gossip.
33
00:03:06,187 --> 00:03:09,523
The styles run to bright-colored clothes
and conservative hats.
34
00:03:10,983 --> 00:03:12,443
And a rumble seat for the baby.
35
00:03:13,569 --> 00:03:15,863
Just the kind of material
the artists were after.
36
00:03:20,576 --> 00:03:22,411
Their music is strange and exotic.
37
00:03:24,663 --> 00:03:27,041
Melodies handed down
from their Inca ancestors.
38
00:03:36,175 --> 00:03:38,385
And walking haystacks
are right in tempo.
39
00:03:43,015 --> 00:03:46,101
These little syncopated burros
bear the heavy burdens here...
40
00:03:47,645 --> 00:03:49,396
because the more dignified llama
41
00:03:49,563 --> 00:03:52,191
will carry just so much
and no more.
42
00:03:53,734 --> 00:03:57,321
When his quota is exceeded,
that haughty aristocrat of the Andes
43
00:03:57,446 --> 00:04:00,157
calmly sits down
and refuses to budge.
44
00:04:03,702 --> 00:04:06,914
Yes, a llama can make you feel
awfully unimportant.
45
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:23,764
All these impressions,
46
00:04:23,847 --> 00:04:26,141
together with the local color
that had been absorbed,
47
00:04:26,433 --> 00:04:27,977
resulted in a little travelog,
48
00:04:28,811 --> 00:04:30,271
seeing the land of the Incas,
49
00:04:30,437 --> 00:04:33,274
through the eyes of a celebrated
North American tourist.
50
00:04:37,861 --> 00:04:41,699
Lake Titicaca is approximately
13,000 feet above sea level.
51
00:04:41,949 --> 00:04:45,035
- Thirteen thousand feet?!
- Hm. Approximately.
52
00:04:45,703 --> 00:04:48,956
At this great height, many visitors
are subject to altitude fever
53
00:04:49,123 --> 00:04:51,458
- or soroche.
- Is that so?
54
00:04:51,709 --> 00:04:53,544
The most common symptom
is dizziness.
55
00:04:53,877 --> 00:04:54,962
Dizziness?
56
00:04:55,296 --> 00:04:56,463
Ah, phooey!
57
00:05:05,639 --> 00:05:07,391
Often followed by palpitation
of the heart.
58
00:05:09,852 --> 00:05:11,437
The ears have a tendency to pop.
59
00:05:13,605 --> 00:05:16,567
And a peculiar ringing sound is heard.
60
00:05:18,652 --> 00:05:20,863
Fascinating, isn't it?
61
00:05:23,449 --> 00:05:25,326
The balsa, or basket boat
62
00:05:25,659 --> 00:05:28,704
is constructed entirely
of reeds tightly bound together.
63
00:05:29,621 --> 00:05:31,749
It's built to withstand
the fury of the elements.
64
00:05:32,541 --> 00:05:35,419
In fact, it seems to be impervious
to practically everything.
65
00:05:38,297 --> 00:05:39,965
Except the inquisitive tourist.
66
00:05:43,594 --> 00:05:45,679
Crossing the lake
is often filled with adventure.
67
00:05:46,055 --> 00:05:48,349
A strong wind
may arise very suddenly.
68
00:05:52,186 --> 00:05:53,395
And then stop suddenly.
69
00:05:59,109 --> 00:06:01,528
In the village we find
this quaint old bakery,
70
00:06:01,695 --> 00:06:04,573
where the tourist may loaf around
to his heart's content.
71
00:06:07,910 --> 00:06:09,787
For the artist
in search of local color,
72
00:06:10,287 --> 00:06:13,123
the marketplace presents
an excellent picture of village life
73
00:06:13,290 --> 00:06:16,460
as shoppers and merchants
bustle about the public square.
74
00:06:25,010 --> 00:06:27,346
The precipitous terrain
in this region offers no problem
75
00:06:27,513 --> 00:06:28,597
to these hardy folk.
76
00:06:31,183 --> 00:06:33,519
And we find the people here
divided into two classes,
77
00:06:34,311 --> 00:06:36,605
those who walk against the wind...
78
00:06:37,189 --> 00:06:38,565
and those who walk with the wind.
79
00:06:44,530 --> 00:06:46,907
Yes, wherever the visitor
points his camera,
80
00:06:47,366 --> 00:06:48,534
he finds a picture...
81
00:06:49,493 --> 00:06:50,577
fit for framing.
82
00:06:50,953 --> 00:06:53,747
The llama, or "yama,"
is an odd-looking individual,
83
00:06:53,914 --> 00:06:55,582
with considerable personality.
84
00:06:56,834 --> 00:06:59,420
His master, here, exercises
complete control over him,
85
00:06:59,586 --> 00:07:00,712
with a homemade flute.
86
00:07:01,713 --> 00:07:04,049
Let's see how he responds
to a few notes up scale.
87
00:07:06,593 --> 00:07:07,719
And down scale.
88
00:07:10,556 --> 00:07:13,100
Up.
89
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,228
Down.
90
00:07:16,437 --> 00:07:17,438
Now do a circular pattern.
91
00:07:21,859 --> 00:07:22,943
Or reverse.
92
00:07:29,283 --> 00:07:32,161
My, my, my! It's amazing!
93
00:07:52,055 --> 00:07:53,474
Note how the crude sign language
94
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:54,975
being used by our tourist here,
95
00:07:55,142 --> 00:07:57,311
is quickly interpreted
by this wide-awake youngster.
96
00:07:57,478 --> 00:07:58,562
¿Aquí está?
97
00:07:59,563 --> 00:08:00,606
¡Gracias!
98
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,774
¡Mucho gracias!
99
00:08:05,277 --> 00:08:07,112
BI-bl-bl-bl-bl!
100
00:08:12,201 --> 00:08:13,869
The visitor never seems
to be satisfied,
101
00:08:14,036 --> 00:08:15,579
until he tries on the native costume.
102
00:08:16,705 --> 00:08:18,290
And our tourist is no exception.
103
00:08:46,568 --> 00:08:48,570
The llama is obviously
not a jitterbug,
104
00:08:48,987 --> 00:08:51,156
but if you want to explore
this precipitous country,
105
00:08:51,406 --> 00:08:53,408
he'll solve all your
transportation problems.
106
00:09:02,918 --> 00:09:05,712
One soon becomes accustomed
to the low, fleecy clouds,
107
00:09:05,921 --> 00:09:08,674
that steel like silent ghosts
across one's path.
108
00:09:12,344 --> 00:09:14,346
The gentle undulating
gait of the llama
109
00:09:14,513 --> 00:09:17,224
adapts itself very nicely
to the swaying motion
110
00:09:17,391 --> 00:09:18,809
of the suspension bridge.
111
00:09:19,560 --> 00:09:20,811
Suspension bridge?
112
00:09:22,354 --> 00:09:24,064
Oh!
113
00:09:27,067 --> 00:09:28,902
Far below us,
we see the village.
114
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,864
Whoa! Whoa!
115
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:38,328
The flute.
116
00:09:52,426 --> 00:09:54,344
Give me that flute,
ya big palooka!
117
00:10:05,606 --> 00:10:06,940
Hey! Take it easy!
118
00:10:07,524 --> 00:10:08,817
Whoa! Whoa!
119
00:10:12,613 --> 00:10:13,614
What?
120
00:10:26,293 --> 00:10:27,919
The traveler should
be cautioned against
121
00:10:28,086 --> 00:10:30,672
any reckless behavior
at this high altitude.
122
00:10:31,256 --> 00:10:33,091
Overexertion is dangerous.
123
00:10:33,467 --> 00:10:36,428
And above all, one should never
lose one's temper.
124
00:10:36,678 --> 00:10:38,805
Shut up, ya' big windbag!
125
00:10:42,184 --> 00:10:44,519
Get off of me! Go on, beat it!
126
00:10:44,811 --> 00:10:46,647
Doggone you.
127
00:11:02,079 --> 00:11:03,580
And finally,
the pottery market,
128
00:11:04,915 --> 00:11:06,833
where the visitor always drops in...
129
00:11:08,627 --> 00:11:10,754
seldom failing to accumulate
a large collection,
130
00:11:10,921 --> 00:11:12,381
of the native handiwork,
131
00:11:12,714 --> 00:11:14,383
as he bids a fond farewell
132
00:11:14,591 --> 00:11:17,719
to the land of the Incas,
Lake Titicaca.
133
00:11:22,599 --> 00:11:24,476
The flight across the Andes
into Chile,
134
00:11:25,268 --> 00:11:26,937
over the highest mountains
in America.
135
00:11:27,354 --> 00:11:29,690
Plenty to see and remember
on this spectacular trip.
136
00:11:31,525 --> 00:11:33,110
Since no cameras are allowed here,
137
00:11:33,527 --> 00:11:35,904
the boys have to cover this
from memory and sketches.
138
00:11:40,492 --> 00:11:43,537
Impressions of Uspallata Pass
from 16,000 feet.
139
00:11:45,914 --> 00:11:48,792
These sketches and the stories told
of the pioneer mail planes
140
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,420
that first flew this route
started everyone thinking.
141
00:11:54,005 --> 00:11:55,757
First a little plane
began to take shape...
142
00:11:59,469 --> 00:12:00,846
with a personality all his own.
143
00:12:03,557 --> 00:12:05,767
All agreed that he had
good screen possibilities...
144
00:12:06,601 --> 00:12:08,645
and before the plane
set down at Santiago,
145
00:12:09,312 --> 00:12:10,605
his life story had begun.
146
00:12:14,568 --> 00:12:16,653
Once upon a time, in a little airport
147
00:12:16,820 --> 00:12:20,407
near Santiago, Chile,
there lived three airplanes,
148
00:12:21,324 --> 00:12:25,287
the papa plane, the mama plane
and the baby plane.
149
00:12:26,496 --> 00:12:29,374
The papa plane was a big
powerful male plane.
150
00:12:33,837 --> 00:12:36,673
Mama plane was a middle-sized
female plane.
151
00:12:38,175 --> 00:12:41,386
And the baby plane
was a little boy plane named Pedro.
152
00:12:41,636 --> 00:12:43,305
Uh, where is Pedro?
153
00:12:44,431 --> 00:12:45,766
Oh, there he is.
154
00:12:45,974 --> 00:12:48,685
Maybe someday he'll grow up
to be a big plane
155
00:12:48,852 --> 00:12:50,729
like his father
who carries the mail,
156
00:12:50,937 --> 00:12:52,481
between Chile and Argentina.
157
00:12:56,526 --> 00:12:59,154
Like all fledglings,
Pedro went to ground school,
158
00:12:59,321 --> 00:13:00,906
to learn the ABC's of flying.
159
00:13:03,492 --> 00:13:05,535
He studied reading, skywriting...
160
00:13:06,495 --> 00:13:07,537
and arithmetic.
161
00:13:08,580 --> 00:13:09,790
He was taught anatomy.
162
00:13:11,541 --> 00:13:12,876
He also studied history.
163
00:13:14,002 --> 00:13:16,755
Pedro! And geography.
164
00:13:17,672 --> 00:13:19,674
And in geography,
he learned the mail route
165
00:13:19,883 --> 00:13:21,510
between Santiago and Mendoza.
166
00:13:22,093 --> 00:13:25,514
Over the mighty Andes,
past Aconcagua,
167
00:13:26,097 --> 00:13:27,808
highest mountain
in the western hemisphere.
168
00:13:30,268 --> 00:13:34,022
One day the papa plane was laid up
with a cold in his cylinder head.
169
00:13:37,609 --> 00:13:38,944
So, he couldn't fly the mail.
170
00:13:40,278 --> 00:13:42,280
And the mama plane
couldn't stand the altitude,
171
00:13:42,489 --> 00:13:44,115
because she had high oil pressure.
172
00:13:44,866 --> 00:13:46,076
So, she couldn't fly the mail.
173
00:13:47,244 --> 00:13:50,789
But the mail must go through.
174
00:13:50,997 --> 00:13:52,040
I hope.
175
00:13:52,916 --> 00:13:56,586
Calling Pedro.
Ready for Flight Two to Mendoza.
176
00:13:57,629 --> 00:13:59,965
"Now, remember, Pedro,"
the mama plane said,
177
00:14:00,549 --> 00:14:04,135
"stay out of downdraft
and keep your muffler on tight."
178
00:14:05,262 --> 00:14:07,055
And don't go near Aconca--
179
00:14:07,389 --> 00:14:10,392
Aconca-- Aconcagua!
180
00:14:13,562 --> 00:14:15,397
Flight Two leaving for Mendoza.
181
00:14:19,568 --> 00:14:21,653
All clear, Pedro.
Let 'er go.
182
00:14:23,655 --> 00:14:26,241
Give 'er the gun, boy!
183
00:14:26,908 --> 00:14:28,660
Gun 'er! Gun 'er!
184
00:14:28,827 --> 00:14:31,413
Don't lose your flying speed!
Pull up! Pull up!
185
00:14:32,163 --> 00:14:33,999
Look out!
186
00:14:37,752 --> 00:14:39,880
And so after a masterly take off,
187
00:14:40,422 --> 00:14:42,257
Pedro started on his
first assignment,
188
00:14:42,674 --> 00:14:44,301
to pick up the mail at Mendoza.
189
00:14:47,304 --> 00:14:50,390
Each and every trip through this pass
is an adventure in itself.
190
00:14:50,932 --> 00:14:53,852
At this altitude, you never
can tell what--
191
00:14:54,060 --> 00:14:55,520
Downdraft!
192
00:14:57,147 --> 00:14:58,315
Pulled out of that one all right.
193
00:14:59,357 --> 00:15:00,901
Handles himself like a veteran.
194
00:15:03,528 --> 00:15:05,530
His course carried him
over the Pass of Uspallata,
195
00:15:05,989 --> 00:15:08,366
where stands the statue
of the Christ of the Andes,
196
00:15:08,867 --> 00:15:11,369
marking the boundary
between Chile and Argentina.
197
00:15:11,995 --> 00:15:14,623
So far, so good.
Not a cylinder missing.
198
00:15:15,290 --> 00:15:18,835
Pedro was flying on top
of the world when suddenly...
199
00:15:19,502 --> 00:15:23,673
his first view of that
towering monarch, Aconcagua!
200
00:15:24,758 --> 00:15:27,135
So, this was the big bully
they'd warned him about.
201
00:15:28,428 --> 00:15:30,180
But, he didn't scare Pedro, though.
202
00:15:30,722 --> 00:15:31,932
No, siree.
203
00:15:38,021 --> 00:15:39,397
Well, the worst is over.
204
00:15:40,106 --> 00:15:42,609
And from now on,
it's clear sailing to Mendoza.
205
00:15:43,276 --> 00:15:44,945
Come in against the wind, Pedro.
206
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:46,363
There's your mail.
207
00:15:47,113 --> 00:15:48,156
Easy now.
208
00:15:48,615 --> 00:15:49,741
Atta boy!
209
00:15:50,075 --> 00:15:51,868
He picked up his mail
like a veteran.
210
00:15:53,036 --> 00:15:56,206
Uh-oh! Careful!
That cargo is precious.
211
00:15:56,915 --> 00:15:59,542
Pedro was homeward bound
and ahead of schedule.
212
00:16:01,127 --> 00:16:03,380
I'll bet his mother and dad
will be proud of him.
213
00:16:04,881 --> 00:16:06,383
Just a natural-born flier.
214
00:16:09,135 --> 00:16:11,221
Hmm, maybe I shouldn't
have mentioned it.
215
00:16:22,232 --> 00:16:23,400
Look out!
216
00:16:24,317 --> 00:16:25,944
Hope he got that out of his system.
217
00:16:26,486 --> 00:16:28,154
Now with good luck and--
Uh-oh.
218
00:16:31,950 --> 00:16:32,993
I was afraid of that.
219
00:16:33,451 --> 00:16:36,287
Hey, Pedro, come back!
220
00:16:36,454 --> 00:16:38,039
The little fellow had completely
221
00:16:38,248 --> 00:16:40,417
forgotten his responsibilities.
Pedro!
222
00:16:40,750 --> 00:16:45,505
Then suddenly, Aconcagua!
223
00:16:46,423 --> 00:16:50,760
Its rocky, snow-filled crags formed
the face of a leering monster.
224
00:16:51,636 --> 00:16:53,888
The oil froze
in little Pedro's cylinders
225
00:16:54,389 --> 00:16:56,224
and his motor knocked with fright.
226
00:16:57,225 --> 00:16:59,310
All those warnings
came back to him now,
227
00:16:59,728 --> 00:17:02,814
the treacherous crosscurrents,
the sudden storms.
228
00:17:41,770 --> 00:17:43,772
Climb above the storm,
Pedro!
229
00:17:44,230 --> 00:17:46,775
Never mind the mail!
Let it go! Let it go!
230
00:17:47,150 --> 00:17:50,278
Forget the mail!
Climb, Pedro! Climb!
231
00:17:52,989 --> 00:17:55,533
Look out!
232
00:17:57,202 --> 00:17:59,662
Climb, Pedro! Climb!
233
00:18:00,330 --> 00:18:03,083
Get above the storm!
I know you can make it!
234
00:18:12,050 --> 00:18:14,761
Drop the mail!
You've got to save yourself!
235
00:18:16,096 --> 00:18:19,265
More altitude!
25,000's all you need!
236
00:18:20,183 --> 00:18:21,559
Up! Up!
237
00:18:22,602 --> 00:18:23,645
Gun your motor!
238
00:18:23,853 --> 00:18:25,814
Now, just a little more
and you'll be in the clear!
239
00:18:26,397 --> 00:18:29,818
Climb, Pedro! Climb!
Good boy!
240
00:18:30,485 --> 00:18:33,071
Good boy!
I knew you could make it!
241
00:18:33,488 --> 00:18:34,781
You're all right now.
242
00:18:35,323 --> 00:18:37,450
Just level off and head straight
for home.
243
00:18:40,120 --> 00:18:42,413
He's out of gas.
244
00:18:43,373 --> 00:18:46,751
Pedro! Pedro!
245
00:18:47,335 --> 00:18:50,338
He's gone.
246
00:18:52,549 --> 00:18:53,883
Back at the home field,
247
00:18:54,676 --> 00:18:57,011
Pedro's parents
searched the skies in vain.
248
00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,806
They knew that he couldn't
have held out this long.
249
00:19:00,682 --> 00:19:02,559
Their brave little son was gone.
250
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,395
Another martyr to the mail service.
251
00:19:06,729 --> 00:19:09,357
Poor little fella.
His first flight.
252
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,486
It's too bad
it had to end this way.
253
00:19:14,612 --> 00:19:15,864
What was that?
254
00:19:16,865 --> 00:19:19,701
I wonder if it--
No, it couldn't be.
255
00:19:20,618 --> 00:19:22,120
Wait! It is!
256
00:19:22,787 --> 00:19:23,997
It's Pedro!
257
00:19:29,002 --> 00:19:32,046
Pedro! Petey boy! Are you all right?
258
00:19:33,631 --> 00:19:35,758
Well, don't ask me how he did it.
259
00:19:37,177 --> 00:19:39,304
It wasn't exactly
a three-point landing,
260
00:19:40,138 --> 00:19:42,182
but he did fulfill his mission.
261
00:19:43,099 --> 00:19:44,767
He brought the mail through.
262
00:19:45,643 --> 00:19:48,021
The mail, that all-important cargo.
263
00:19:48,688 --> 00:19:50,190
"Estoy divirtiendome."
264
00:19:51,274 --> 00:19:53,776
"Having wonderful time.
Wish you were--" Hmm.
265
00:19:55,153 --> 00:19:56,696
Well, it might have been important.
266
00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,240
And he did bring in the mail!
267
00:20:01,201 --> 00:20:03,161
And so the papa plane,
the mama plane
268
00:20:03,328 --> 00:20:05,914
and little Pedro
flew happily ever after.
269
00:20:08,082 --> 00:20:11,044
Sailing eastward from Chile,
we cross the Argentine Pampas.
270
00:20:13,213 --> 00:20:15,715
Just millions of acres
of rich grazing land...
271
00:20:16,090 --> 00:20:18,092
stretching from the mountains
to Buenos Aires...
272
00:20:19,302 --> 00:20:21,012
the third largest city
in the Western Hemisphere.
273
00:20:23,139 --> 00:20:24,849
Buenos Aires is a beautiful city.
274
00:20:25,225 --> 00:20:26,935
This is the Plaza de Mayo,
275
00:20:27,477 --> 00:20:28,978
one of its delightful parks.
276
00:20:29,771 --> 00:20:32,398
The Teatro Colon,
home of the opera.
277
00:20:34,234 --> 00:20:35,860
And the stately Congress building,
278
00:20:36,027 --> 00:20:37,403
center of Argentina's government.
279
00:20:40,657 --> 00:20:42,367
The tallest building
in South America...
280
00:20:43,201 --> 00:20:44,827
the Edificio Cavanaugh.
281
00:20:47,163 --> 00:20:49,249
Yes, they were really impressed
with the big city,
282
00:20:49,874 --> 00:20:52,252
but impressive too
was the lure of the Pampas
283
00:20:52,418 --> 00:20:53,753
and the Argentine gaucho,
284
00:20:54,087 --> 00:20:56,172
as painted by F. Molina Campos.
285
00:20:57,882 --> 00:20:59,717
The party were guests
at his ranch studio,
286
00:20:59,884 --> 00:21:02,053
where Senor Campos
paints the gaucho
287
00:21:02,220 --> 00:21:03,930
with amazing detail and humor.
288
00:21:08,768 --> 00:21:11,020
Seeing these pictures made them
more anxious than ever
289
00:21:11,187 --> 00:21:12,814
to meet these caballeros
in person.
290
00:21:16,859 --> 00:21:18,403
And they lived up to their pictures.
291
00:21:19,696 --> 00:21:21,197
A real wild west show,
292
00:21:21,739 --> 00:21:23,825
but just part of the day's work
for a gaucho.
293
00:21:25,868 --> 00:21:28,204
Sketching these paisanos
in action was no easy job.
294
00:21:34,335 --> 00:21:36,963
But they did manage to get a good
look at the gaucho's equipment.
295
00:21:38,506 --> 00:21:41,092
Silver coins decorate his belt,
or tirador.
296
00:21:42,218 --> 00:21:43,469
The sheepskin saddle.
297
00:21:44,595 --> 00:21:46,014
Soft horsehide boots.
298
00:21:48,016 --> 00:21:49,684
This garment's called a chiripa.
299
00:21:53,396 --> 00:21:55,481
Here the visitors
were treated to an asado:
300
00:21:56,691 --> 00:21:58,026
choice cuts of meat,
301
00:21:58,776 --> 00:22:00,611
mate, the Argentine tea,
302
00:22:01,446 --> 00:22:03,239
and wine from their own vineyards.
303
00:22:04,282 --> 00:22:06,159
True Argentine hospitality.
304
00:22:06,993 --> 00:22:09,245
A group of skilled dancers
entertained the guests.
305
00:22:10,246 --> 00:22:12,290
Not the modern tango
of Buenos Aires,
306
00:22:13,166 --> 00:22:15,001
but the country dances
of the Argentine.
307
00:22:16,210 --> 00:22:18,963
The same tunes to which
their grandparents had danced.
308
00:22:36,481 --> 00:22:38,274
Notice how closely
these steps resemble
309
00:22:38,441 --> 00:22:40,568
the old-time square dances
of North America.
310
00:22:52,121 --> 00:22:54,332
Gathering picture material here
was a pleasure.
311
00:23:20,858 --> 00:23:22,151
Another story was under way.
312
00:23:22,777 --> 00:23:24,612
And after seeing
Senor Campos' paintings,
313
00:23:24,695 --> 00:23:26,280
and all this colorful exhibition,
314
00:23:26,823 --> 00:23:29,158
we couldn't help but compare
the life of the Argentine gaucho,
315
00:23:29,367 --> 00:23:30,910
with that of our own cowboy.
316
00:23:31,577 --> 00:23:34,247
And they reached way back into Texas
to find the leading man.
317
00:23:35,373 --> 00:23:37,750
From the windswept plains
of Montana,
318
00:23:38,126 --> 00:23:40,378
to the sunbaked banks
of the Rio Grande,
319
00:23:41,045 --> 00:23:43,923
over countless miles
of mountain and prairie,
320
00:23:44,549 --> 00:23:48,719
untouched and unsullied
by the mercenary hand of civilization,
321
00:23:49,262 --> 00:23:53,015
roams a tough,
hardy and heroic breed of man,
322
00:23:53,558 --> 00:23:55,143
the North American cowboy.
323
00:23:56,185 --> 00:23:58,438
Strong, silent and weather-beaten.
324
00:24:01,441 --> 00:24:03,067
Howdy, strangers!
325
00:24:03,609 --> 00:24:05,653
This colorful cowhand
of the great west
326
00:24:06,070 --> 00:24:08,573
has his counterpart
in the South American gaucho.
327
00:24:09,115 --> 00:24:12,076
So let us call upon the magic
of our motion picture camera
328
00:24:12,243 --> 00:24:15,121
and whisk our hardy heroes outward.
329
00:24:15,413 --> 00:24:16,831
Over land and sea,
330
00:24:17,290 --> 00:24:19,459
over rugged mountains
and dense jungles...
331
00:24:20,918 --> 00:24:22,462
down across the equator
332
00:24:23,004 --> 00:24:25,798
to the lush, grassy Pampas
of the Argentine,
333
00:24:26,132 --> 00:24:27,758
the home of the gaucho.
334
00:24:30,219 --> 00:24:33,723
Now, the cowboys of both Americas
have much in common,
335
00:24:34,056 --> 00:24:36,851
although their costume differs
in a few minor details.
336
00:24:37,310 --> 00:24:41,105
We substitute bombachas
for chaps, the sombrero.
337
00:24:41,314 --> 00:24:42,773
Then there's the saco,
338
00:24:42,940 --> 00:24:45,943
the tirador, the chiripa
and the panuelo.
339
00:24:46,861 --> 00:24:48,571
Botas, espuelas.
340
00:24:52,158 --> 00:24:54,035
Then finally, we have the poncho,
341
00:24:54,660 --> 00:24:56,579
which just about covers everything.
342
00:24:59,499 --> 00:25:02,710
The gaucho's closest friend
and inseparable companion
343
00:25:03,127 --> 00:25:05,338
is his horse, or pingo.
344
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,677
Quickly the gaucho reaches
for his lasso!
345
00:25:11,969 --> 00:25:13,429
Twirling the rawhide above his head,
346
00:25:13,596 --> 00:25:15,473
he deftly tosses the noose
about the horse's neck,
347
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,517
and easily subdues
the spirited animal
348
00:25:17,683 --> 00:25:19,602
with the help of the snubbing post...
349
00:25:20,686 --> 00:25:21,938
...or palenque.
350
00:25:24,106 --> 00:25:26,776
Thanks to the palenque,
or snubbing post,
351
00:25:27,193 --> 00:25:28,903
the horse is soon
brought under control,
352
00:25:29,070 --> 00:25:30,571
and is ready for the saddle.
353
00:25:35,952 --> 00:25:38,329
While it appears complex
at first glance,
354
00:25:38,746 --> 00:25:42,375
the recado, or saddle,
is really simplicity itself.
355
00:25:44,835 --> 00:25:47,296
In saddling the horse,
or pingo,
356
00:25:48,089 --> 00:25:50,550
the gaucho simply lays
a foundation of sudaderos
357
00:25:50,841 --> 00:25:53,844
and rosaderos, adding the cinchas,
bastos, sheepskin, pigskin,
358
00:25:54,011 --> 00:25:57,557
bridle, bit and finally, the gaucho.
359
00:25:59,976 --> 00:26:01,602
When riding the range at night,
360
00:26:02,103 --> 00:26:05,565
the saddle may be quickly
converted into a bed, or catre.
361
00:26:06,399 --> 00:26:09,277
Bed?
362
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,907
One of the gaucho's
favorite sports is the asado,
363
00:26:15,408 --> 00:26:16,909
or Argentine barbecue.
364
00:26:18,369 --> 00:26:20,246
Over an open charcoal fire,
365
00:26:20,913 --> 00:26:23,708
thick, juicy, tender steaks
are prepared.
366
00:26:24,417 --> 00:26:26,002
And, amigos,
367
00:26:26,502 --> 00:26:28,671
it fairly melts in your mouth.
368
00:26:30,756 --> 00:26:32,174
Macanudo!
369
00:26:33,843 --> 00:26:36,512
The gaucho's method
of eating looks quite simple,
370
00:26:36,929 --> 00:26:39,181
yet requires a certain
amount of practice.
371
00:26:39,932 --> 00:26:41,892
The bread and meat
are held in one hand,
372
00:26:42,435 --> 00:26:43,728
the knife in the other.
373
00:26:44,395 --> 00:26:46,063
Note the action of wrist and elbow,
374
00:26:46,230 --> 00:26:50,067
as knife and food synchronize
in deft, graceful rhythm.
375
00:26:51,152 --> 00:26:54,322
One, two, bite, cut, chew.
376
00:26:54,864 --> 00:26:57,283
One, two, bite, cut, chew.
377
00:26:58,951 --> 00:27:01,579
Yes, it is this wholesome diet
that build the gaucho's
378
00:27:01,746 --> 00:27:03,956
nerves of steel and muscles of iron.
379
00:27:06,375 --> 00:27:08,711
And now the boleadoras,
or bolas.
380
00:27:09,378 --> 00:27:12,465
The bolas consist of three lead
weights covered with rawhide
381
00:27:12,798 --> 00:27:14,967
and is often used for sport,
such as capturing
382
00:27:15,134 --> 00:27:17,928
that swift-moving bird of the Pampas,
the Argentine ostrich,
383
00:27:18,387 --> 00:27:20,640
or avestruz.
384
00:27:20,848 --> 00:27:23,017
Unlike most members
of the ostrich family,
385
00:27:23,392 --> 00:27:26,437
the avestruz is not equipped
with ornamental tail plumage.
386
00:27:26,604 --> 00:27:29,357
Its slender legs make
excellent targets for the bolas.
387
00:27:30,483 --> 00:27:31,651
Did he say "bolas"?
388
00:27:32,526 --> 00:27:33,527
Caramba!
389
00:27:35,613 --> 00:27:36,781
Dashing at breakneck speed,
390
00:27:36,947 --> 00:27:39,784
the gaucho whirls the bolas
round and round, faster and faster,
391
00:27:39,992 --> 00:27:41,243
and then the throw!
392
00:27:41,410 --> 00:27:43,621
Straight and sure it flies,
until it finds its mark.
393
00:27:43,871 --> 00:27:46,874
And the swift bird is captured
and tied all in one operation.
394
00:27:49,418 --> 00:27:53,172
And now to fully appreciate
this remarkable feat,
395
00:27:53,673 --> 00:27:55,049
let us study the action,
396
00:27:55,341 --> 00:27:57,635
through the eye
of the slow-motion camera.
397
00:27:59,261 --> 00:28:01,764
Note the grace and beauty,
398
00:28:02,098 --> 00:28:05,643
of this light-footed creature
in startled flight.
399
00:28:07,478 --> 00:28:11,482
With delicate balance
and clocklike precision of timing,
400
00:28:12,108 --> 00:28:15,111
man and beast moving as one,
401
00:28:15,444 --> 00:28:18,239
display a minimum of waste motion...
402
00:28:20,741 --> 00:28:24,286
as the whirling bolas are unleashed.
403
00:28:29,166 --> 00:28:30,710
Faster and faster!
404
00:28:30,876 --> 00:28:33,087
On and on they spin,
closer and closer!
405
00:28:33,254 --> 00:28:34,463
Here they come! Be careful!
406
00:28:34,630 --> 00:28:35,840
Get out of the way!
Heads up! Watch it!
407
00:28:36,006 --> 00:28:38,050
Look out, look out! Here it comes!
Duck, duck, duck!
408
00:28:38,217 --> 00:28:39,468
Too late! Too late!
409
00:28:48,686 --> 00:28:50,146
And when night--
410
00:28:50,271 --> 00:28:51,939
When night falls,
411
00:28:52,106 --> 00:28:54,150
...the lone gaucho oft times
412
00:28:54,316 --> 00:28:57,278
finds himself far,
far out on the Pampas.
413
00:28:58,446 --> 00:29:01,031
Listen to the melancholy
strains of the triste,
414
00:29:01,615 --> 00:29:03,200
a sad, romantic ballad.
415
00:29:04,785 --> 00:29:11,584
Yo soy la blanca paloma
416
00:29:13,127 --> 00:29:14,587
Que en el cardal
417
00:29:14,837 --> 00:29:18,090
De la loma
418
00:29:26,056 --> 00:29:31,479
Yo soy-- Yo soy-- Yo soy--
Yo soy-- Yo soy-- Yo--
419
00:29:31,729 --> 00:29:34,356
Yo soy
420
00:29:35,065 --> 00:29:37,318
But the gaucho
is not always sad.
421
00:29:37,860 --> 00:29:41,197
Come, let us dance
to the lively beat of the chacarera,
422
00:29:41,572 --> 00:29:43,240
the dance of the farmer's daughter.
423
00:29:47,411 --> 00:29:48,829
Combining the minuet,
424
00:29:49,914 --> 00:29:53,334
the bunny hug,
and a dash of jumping jive.
425
00:29:54,627 --> 00:29:56,670
The Pampas version
of cutting a rug.
426
00:29:57,922 --> 00:30:00,257
And El Malambo,
427
00:30:00,841 --> 00:30:04,553
a solo number in which the dancer
swings out with utter abandon,
428
00:30:05,304 --> 00:30:08,974
often described as perpetual motion
below the equator.
429
00:30:15,231 --> 00:30:18,609
El Pala Pala.
430
00:30:19,443 --> 00:30:21,070
Ah-hyuck!
431
00:30:22,029 --> 00:30:24,156
Traditional dance
of the rooster and the hen.
432
00:30:39,129 --> 00:30:41,632
And now, as he sways
to the gentle undulations
433
00:30:41,799 --> 00:30:46,136
of El Malambo, we gently waft
our transplanted cowboy...
434
00:30:47,263 --> 00:30:49,098
back to his prairie homeland.
435
00:30:49,306 --> 00:30:52,184
Here we leave him
with warm and tender memories,
436
00:30:52,434 --> 00:30:56,188
of his visit to the gay,
romantic land of the gaucho.
437
00:30:56,981 --> 00:31:00,526
Hasta la vista.
¡Adios, amigos!
438
00:31:08,576 --> 00:31:11,662
And now from the Pampas
to Brazil and Rio de Janeiro,
439
00:31:12,329 --> 00:31:14,415
a city of amazing beauty
and a perfect setting.
440
00:31:24,425 --> 00:31:27,011
One of the best views of the city
is from the top of Sugarloaf,
441
00:31:27,511 --> 00:31:30,556
overlooking Copacabana Beach,
the playground of Rio.
442
00:31:33,434 --> 00:31:36,228
From Corcovado,
the Statue of the Savior looks out
443
00:31:36,395 --> 00:31:38,439
upon these scenes
of active city life.
444
00:31:41,567 --> 00:31:43,944
This is the kind of atmosphere
the artists were after.
445
00:31:45,070 --> 00:31:46,697
The outdoor cafes...
446
00:31:48,407 --> 00:31:51,076
the mosaic sidewalks
that are found all over Rio.
447
00:31:52,411 --> 00:31:55,456
These designs are a tribute
to patience and artistry,
448
00:31:55,748 --> 00:31:57,416
preserving a Brazilian tradition.
449
00:32:00,502 --> 00:32:01,921
Here are some
of the first impressions.
450
00:32:05,382 --> 00:32:06,926
This is what can happen
to a big city,
451
00:32:07,092 --> 00:32:09,261
when a crowd of cartoonists
are turned loose.
452
00:32:15,726 --> 00:32:17,728
Among the sketches
was a promising actor,
453
00:32:17,978 --> 00:32:21,774
Old Papagaio, the parrot featured
in most of Brazil's funny stories.
454
00:32:25,778 --> 00:32:27,613
With the help
of the wardrobe department,
455
00:32:28,072 --> 00:32:29,531
he becomes Joe Carioca.
456
00:32:30,783 --> 00:32:33,827
The music of Brazil, a samba.
457
00:32:34,745 --> 00:32:36,455
Rhythm instruments
like reco reco...
458
00:32:38,123 --> 00:32:39,166
and the cabaca...
459
00:32:41,043 --> 00:32:43,796
all help to beat out
that intricate samba rhythm...
460
00:32:45,631 --> 00:32:47,508
a lively two-step with a bounce.
461
00:32:50,219 --> 00:32:52,680
It's the same rhythm
that captivates the whole city
462
00:32:52,888 --> 00:32:54,306
when carnival time comes around.
463
00:32:55,265 --> 00:32:56,767
Samba!
464
00:33:17,079 --> 00:33:18,664
Carnival in Rio...
465
00:33:19,248 --> 00:33:21,041
three hilarious days and nights.
466
00:33:21,750 --> 00:33:23,627
Singing, dancing and celebrating.
467
00:33:24,503 --> 00:33:27,715
The spirit of the Mardi Gras
and New Year's Eve rolled into one.
468
00:33:34,555 --> 00:33:36,932
Each year hundreds of songs are written
469
00:33:37,099 --> 00:33:38,392
especially for this occasion,
470
00:33:39,226 --> 00:33:40,936
and the dream of every composer
471
00:33:41,103 --> 00:33:43,480
is to have his song chosen
as a Carnival hit.
472
00:33:44,356 --> 00:33:46,567
One number stood out
as a perfect background
473
00:33:46,775 --> 00:33:48,193
for the first Brazilian film.
474
00:33:49,111 --> 00:33:52,698
Its author, Ary Barroso,
has made use of the samba rhythm
475
00:33:53,115 --> 00:33:55,200
to paint a musical picture
of his native land,
476
00:33:56,035 --> 00:33:59,455
"Aquarela do Brasil,"
a watercolor of Brazil.
477
00:34:33,739 --> 00:34:38,952
Brasil
Meu Brasil brasileiro
478
00:34:40,245 --> 00:34:43,791
Meu mulato inzoneiro
479
00:34:44,666 --> 00:34:50,422
Vou cantar-te os meus versos
480
00:34:51,340 --> 00:34:53,509
O Brasil, samba, que da
481
00:34:53,634 --> 00:34:55,803
Bamboleio
Que faz gingar
482
00:34:55,969 --> 00:34:58,180
O Brasil
Do meu amor
483
00:34:58,305 --> 00:35:02,267
Terra de Nosso Senhor
484
00:35:02,392 --> 00:35:04,394
Brasil
485
00:35:04,603 --> 00:35:06,939
Brasil
486
00:35:07,064 --> 00:35:08,982
Pra mim
487
00:35:09,358 --> 00:35:12,111
Pra mim
488
00:35:16,698 --> 00:35:23,664
O esse coqueiro que da coco
489
00:35:23,997 --> 00:35:28,335
Aonde amarro a minha rede
490
00:35:28,710 --> 00:35:32,673
Nas noites claras de lua
491
00:35:32,881 --> 00:35:34,800
Brasil
492
00:35:35,008 --> 00:35:37,553
Brasil
493
00:35:40,472 --> 00:35:44,768
O oi essas fontes murmurantes
494
00:35:45,102 --> 00:35:49,314
Oi onde eu mato minha sede
495
00:35:49,773 --> 00:35:56,029
E onde a lua vem brincar
496
00:35:56,572 --> 00:36:03,245
Oi, esse Brasil lindo e trigueiro
497
00:36:03,745 --> 00:36:07,457
E o meu Brasil brasileiro
498
00:36:08,375 --> 00:36:12,421
Terra de samba e pandeiro
499
00:36:12,546 --> 00:36:14,631
Brasil
500
00:36:14,798 --> 00:36:17,092
Brasil
501
00:36:17,259 --> 00:36:19,303
Pra mim
502
00:36:19,469 --> 00:36:21,805
Pra mim
503
00:36:35,944 --> 00:36:38,071
What happened?
Where am I?
504
00:36:39,156 --> 00:36:40,991
What's going on around here?
505
00:36:45,495 --> 00:36:47,414
Boy, this is fun!
506
00:36:53,128 --> 00:36:54,171
Uh-oh!
507
00:36:55,214 --> 00:36:58,091
What's this?
A parrot?
508
00:37:11,146 --> 00:37:13,148
Cavalheiro,
aqui esta o meu cartao.
509
00:37:15,859 --> 00:37:18,528
"Jose Carioca.
510
00:37:19,238 --> 00:37:20,906
Rio de...
511
00:37:21,573 --> 00:37:24,868
Janeiro, Brasil."
512
00:37:25,202 --> 00:37:27,037
Nao, senhor.
Jose Carioca.
513
00:37:27,204 --> 00:37:30,290
Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.
Tem um dos seus?
514
00:37:30,791 --> 00:37:33,085
- Huh?
- Tem um dos seus?
515
00:37:33,585 --> 00:37:37,631
My card? I know I brought
one from the States.
516
00:37:37,881 --> 00:37:39,299
Ah! There you are.
517
00:37:42,177 --> 00:37:43,220
Muito obrigado.
518
00:37:44,346 --> 00:37:45,472
Donald Duck?
519
00:37:46,098 --> 00:37:48,850
O Pato Donald!
O Pato Donald!
520
00:37:51,061 --> 00:37:54,147
Ora, venha de la um abraco,
521
00:37:54,356 --> 00:37:58,360
um quebra costelas,
um bom carioca,
522
00:37:58,610 --> 00:38:01,154
bem amigo, seja bem-vindo,
meu caro.
523
00:38:01,363 --> 00:38:04,157
O Pato Donald!
Veja voce.
524
00:38:04,491 --> 00:38:07,077
Vamos sair por ai.
Vai conhecer o Rio.
525
00:38:07,286 --> 00:38:10,038
Vamos a todos os lugares.
Vamos a Tijuca, Copacabana,
526
00:38:10,330 --> 00:38:13,208
Salgueiro, Laranjeiras,
Botafogo, Andarai, Meyer,
527
00:38:13,542 --> 00:38:16,086
Jardim Botanico, Furnas,
Campos de Sant'Ana, Cinelandia,
528
00:38:16,253 --> 00:38:19,089
Praca Onze, Sao Cristovao, Niteroi,
Paqueta, Avenida Atlantica,
529
00:38:19,172 --> 00:38:23,176
Leme, Leblon, Gavea,
Pao de Acucar, e ao Corcovado!
530
00:38:24,052 --> 00:38:26,722
- Or as you Americans say...
- Huh?
531
00:38:27,097 --> 00:38:29,725
- "Let's go see the town."
- Okay, Joe!
532
00:38:29,933 --> 00:38:31,018
Where do we go?
533
00:38:31,226 --> 00:38:34,563
Donald, I will show you
the land of the samba!
534
00:38:35,314 --> 00:38:37,691
Samba?
What's samba?
535
00:38:37,941 --> 00:38:40,068
Ah, the samba!
536
00:40:10,117 --> 00:40:12,661
Ah, soda pop!
537
00:40:13,286 --> 00:40:14,871
Nao, cachaca.
538
00:40:15,622 --> 00:40:17,582
Que tal uma
cachacinha agora?
539
00:40:18,166 --> 00:40:20,836
- Saude.
- Down the hatch, Joe!
540
00:40:30,804 --> 00:40:33,056
- Muito obrigado.
- Oh.
541
00:40:39,980 --> 00:40:43,150
Donald, now you have
the spirit of the samba!
542
00:41:20,729 --> 00:41:24,316
Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
Oh, boy! Oh, boy! Samba!
543
00:41:27,402 --> 00:41:34,159
Oi, esse Brasil lindo e trigueiro
544
00:41:34,659 --> 00:41:38,747
E o meu Brasil brasileiro
545
00:41:39,247 --> 00:41:43,335
Terra de samba e pandeiro
546
00:41:43,543 --> 00:41:45,587
Brasil
547
00:41:45,754 --> 00:41:48,006
Brasil
548
00:41:48,173 --> 00:41:50,342
Pra mim
549
00:41:50,509 --> 00:41:52,594
